This is the way that I have handled this in the past. I assign a Column name in the VTS to each project. Then I create a composite record that contains multiple data elements separated by a delimiter (For example a '':'').

Example Composite data:

234398:Smith:John:11987 Cathy Rd:Lithia:FL:33547:813 555-5555:221-89-9999:

Once this is done, you make a single retrieve from the VTS on the project column. Within your script, use strtok to separate the data elements and place those in parameters using lr_save_string.

As far as I know there is no limited on the number of characters stored within a single VTS data field.
